# Damned if what you're feeling isn't change...
:17:05
So I did stay home for a while.
:17:07
The 1960s rushed by like a locomotive,
:17:10
while Dodd grew up like a moose.
:17:12
Sandy and I did a couple of movies together
but they were dogs.

:17:15
The music scene was changing
as dramatically as the country.

:17:18
Nightclubs were out
and big venues like stadiums were in.

:17:22
I was suddenly irrelevant,
my stage literally disappearing.

:17:26
I tried to write new music
and got involved in politics

:17:29
because we were now a country at war.
:17:33
But the fact was, I was a balding chart singer
:17:35
who hadn't had a hit in years,
and who should be dead.

:17:39
So why Kennedy?
:17:40
Like most people in this country,
I'm fed up with all the insanity.

:17:44
The assassination of our president,
Vietnam, riots.

:17:46
I'm looking for salvation from all the madness,
:17:49
and then along comes
another guy named Bobby.

:17:51
Now, here is a no-bullshit guy
who is committed, passionate,

:17:55
who really cares -
I've completely dedicated myself to this man.

:17:59
I think he may be this country's last hope.
:18:02
Go out and vote.
:18:03
While it seemed Bobby Kennedy
might heal the country,

:18:05
Sandy and I drifted farther and farther apart.
:18:08
Bobby, why do you sing
the same songs every night?

:18:13
Isn't it boring?
:18:15
Well, honey, it's an act.
:18:17
Do you expect me to sing
different songs every night?

:18:19
Why not? I don't make the same movies.
:18:21
Well, actually, you do. Sweet, little, innocent...
:18:24
Excuse me!
:18:26
But I think I know what people want
in the movies nowadays, OK?

:18:29
You may be the expert in... in music,
:18:32
but I... I have had
years of movie experience!

:18:37
Not bad, Sand.
:18:39
Would've been even better
without the slur in your voice.

:18:45
My sister came out to stay with us,
:18:47
but her real reason for coming
I couldn't have possibly imagined.

:18:50
Listen, Bobby, there's a reason
I felt I had to come and stay with you.

:18:55
Yeah, what?
:18:58
I heard you were going into politics.
You still thinkin' about doing that?
